Improved track/race motorcycle brake pad formula promises even more performance
EBC Brakes Racing is pleased to unveil its new flagship motorcycle track/race brake pad – the GPFAX D2.
Developing a truly confidence-inspiring race brake pad isn’t about chasing peak numbers – it’s about delivering consistency, control, and predictability at the limit. With the new GPFAX D2, that’s exactly what the team set out to achieve.
This latest compound represents a significant step forward from the highly acclaimed GPFAX pad. Where earlier materials pushed close to EBC’s performance targets, GPFAX D2 delivers the complete package: improved durability, enhanced feel, and exceptionally consistent torque output across all operating conditions.
Built for Precision and Control
One of the defining characteristics of GPFAX D2 is its torque linearity. From initial application through to maximum braking force, the response is smooth and predictable:
- Low initial torque rise for improved modulation
- Linear torque increase with pressure input
- Stable performance regardless of speed or temperature
In simple terms: what you put in is exactly what you get out. More pressure results in a directly proportional increase in braking force, giving riders the confidence to push deeper into the braking zone.
Progressive Feel, Lap After Lap
Rather than delivering an aggressive, spiky initial bite, GPFAX D2 has been engineered to provide a progressive increase in braking force throughout the stop. The result is a controlled, intuitive feel that allows for precise adjustments mid-corner and under heavy load.
Improved Wear Characteristics
Durability is just as critical as outright performance. In back-to-back testing, GPFAX D2 demonstrated significantly reduced wear rates compared to the previous generation – extending pad life without compromising braking performance.
Proven Through Data
Extensive dyno testing highlights the compound’s consistency, with clean, repeatable torque traces that remain stable across varying pressures and temperatures. The data reinforces what riders feel on track: predictable, confidence-building braking performance in every scenario.
